That's exactly what I said last time it got brought up, you've been in it longer so I could only imagine. It went down hill fast after I joined myself. It's almost ending up like every other Facebook group out there.

I made a comment to the ahole bragging about buying one for $225 and I get called ".... hurt." Yeah, I'm extremely .... hurt that YOU paid 3 times the RRP for a NarDA. I paid $70 for mine and that money directly supported Nareg not some dbag profiting off of his work. :facepalm:

ETA: I'm only staying in there for two reasons: (1) I want to get my hands on one more and (2) I'm curious about what Nareg will come up with in the future. The first will be easy. All I have to do is be patient and wait for all the vipsters to find something new and hot to move on to.

God I wish I could like this comment more then once lol. I don't get people like that, cause to them it's just a damn bragging right and a novelty piece, no one cares you spent that much. In fact the only thing they think is your an absolute idiot. I mean I love my NarDA but not enough to shell out that kind of money.

This whole butthurt trend is killing me, it's literally all I read followed by "dem cloudz doe"....What's this world coming too.

I abandoned FB (no regrets) but I'm following them on Instagram. They post on Instagram about as often as they have NarDAs
For sale. So, I rely on the kindness of strangers...hehe

I'm right there with you. I just don't get it. At all. I wonder if they even vape with any of that gear?

I was wondering the same thing actually. And I just saw your updated post and your reasons for staying and there exactly the same reasons I'm staying, that's about it. I would die if I missed a v2 or a mod or what have you. I barely even look at the page anymore, I do hope he runs those glass caps though!

Yeah, I like the look of those glass caps.

I don't want to miss out on a V2 or mod either. I'm pretty sure Nar is gonna come out with an SX350J (maybe SX450) or DNA200 mod. Depending on the price and materials I might get one.

Nar is frustrating, though. He posts how he will be absent from FB because he's working on a big batch of NarDA. Great. But! He comes back later and posts about how they will be released in smaller batches. Why? IMO that totally defeats the purpose of making a large batch. It will still be hard for people to get one. Why not just take two months, make a ton of NarDAs, release them all at once while allowing one purchase per person and more people can actually get one.

I wonder why the Hobo group doesn't have the same issues?

Hell, I'd rather he do like some modders do: make a list, people sign up, when he makes a batch of NarDAs they are sold to people in order.
I'd rather this approach too. Or like others have said, just take the time and make a whole bunch and then release them. A lot of these small batches are getting scooped up by people who already have like 3 narda's.

In two or three months (if Nar doesn't stop making them) they'll be easy (or at least easIER) to get. That's when I'll swoop in and get a 2nd and move on with my life.

Agreed. Sounds like what I will do as well. I really wish the satin would be offered again or at least a satin option cap, that would be awesome. At the point I'm at now I'm trying to whittle down my line up and as it stands I'm down to 4 that I use the most. But I'm trying to kick the fourth out and replace it with something better, that's where another NarDA comes in. But I'm not gonna fight for it, plus I already have 1 so I'll wait in the shadows until there more readily available.

I bought some wire (26 GA kanthal)today to start building my own coils and been failing horribly, think this stuff is too small for my bad eyesight. I should of just purchased some pre rolled coils. Whats the best thing you can find around the house to wrap your wire around? Im trying to get around .5 or higher .
I'm old school still I use drill bits. You could also use small/precision screwdrivers too. Basically anything small enough and perfectly round.

Easy answer is a small screwdriver or drillbit.

Ok second attempt went better but I think I made the coil too small, I used one of them mini screw drivers
When you get a chance pick up a Coilmaster. Makes like soooo much easier. It has rods for 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5 and 4mm ID coils. You probably won't need anything bigger or smaller than that. Lightning Vapes has them for like $11.95.

WRAPPING a coil, I can do with my poor eyesight no problemo. Now, mounting, setting and wicking it, THAT I need a lil help for. I use a strange bird called an Optivisor (reminds me of The Jerk, and his Opti-Grabs) to give me more magnification. Sadly, even THAT isn't enough with the small RTA decks anymore, so I ordered one of these. $13, tough to beat. I SHOULD be able to build on ANYthing with them..

AND, I'm ready for a SteamPunk party! WOOT! Who's in?! :)
